More quotes by Maya Angelou
Never, never let a person know you're frightened. And a group of them ... absolutely never. Fear brings out the worst in everybody.
Maya Angelou
I read the Bible to myself I'll take any translation, any edition, and read it aloud, just to hear the language, hear the rhythm, and remind myself how beautiful English is.
Maya Angelou
It is important that we learn humility, which says there was someone else before me who paid for me. My responsibility is to prepare myself so that I can pay for someone else who is yet to come.

Maya Angelou
The happy heart runs with the river, floats on the air, lifts to the music, soars with the eagle, hopes with the prayer.
Maya Angelou
I pray for humility because that comes from inside out. And what humility does for one, is it reminds us that there are people before me. I have already been paid for. And what I need to do is prepare myself so that I can pay for someone else who has yet to come, but who may be here and needs me.
Maya Angelou
Thank you, always say thank you it's the greatest gift you can give someone because thank you is what you say to God.
Maya Angelou
Life loves the person who dares to live it.
Maya Angelou
The most called-upon prerequisite of a friend is an accessible ear.
Maya Angelou
I am never proud to participate in violence, yet I know that each of us must care enough for ourselves that we can be ready and able to come to our own defence when and wherever needed.
Maya Angelou
